Need advice on how to refinish my frame - paint or powder coat?
I'm nearing the end of the teardown phase of my 1974 650 and am getting ready to do the frame. Engine is out, everything if off of the frame and I'm planning to send it out to the sandblaster. After the sandblasting, should I have it painted or powder coated?
I'm going back to stock with this restoration, so should the black finish be flat or have any shine to it?
If you recommend paint, what type of paint do you recommend?
Thanks for the help! Any other advice for this frame resto is welcome.
